C.D Friedrich (1774-1840)

Day 1774: Water! Followed another tutorial on water, this time by The Art of Aaron Blaise! Messed around with a lot of layers, made a new brush, tried some filters and layer styles to come up with this! It was a fun experiment and I really enjoy working with layer styles!
